Shiny!

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Well deserved. Bravo!

I saw the magazine the other day I think its pretty damn impressive how well its done considering how long ago it was that the show was cancelled.

Ive also started to notice a few magazine like SFX, Empire etc. are getting more interested in Firefly/Serenity which can only be a good thing.

"Best Show- 1st Buffy, 3rd Firefly"

Was anyone actually watching Buffy S7?! Compared to Firefly it was absolute drek. In fact it was absolute drek anyway.

"Best Episode- 1st Buffy: Chosen, 3rd FIrefly: Out of Gas"

Out of Gas - probably best episode ME have ever produced. Chosen - solid ending to a flagging series. It's a no brainer really.

"Best Actor- 1st James Marsters, 3rd Nathan Fillon"

Well this one is tougher but I still think Nathan should have won. James' accent slips noticeably in the later years of Buffy/Angel although I'm not quite sure which timeframe these awards refer to.

"Best New Show- 1st Dead like Me, 2nd Firefly"

Dead Like Me is pretty inconsistent. Some of the episodes were great, some were dire. Firefly outclasses it on all fronts.

"Best FX- 1st Stargat SG1, 6th Firefly"

Firefly certainly has some of the best FX I've ever seen on TV but then I haven't seen any new Stargate so I wouldn't really know.

"Best DVD- 1st LOTR two Towers, 9th Firefly"

Average film. How good can the DVD be? Certainly not better than the Serenity commentary ;)

"Best Newcomer- 1st Ellen Muth (Dead like me), 2nd Nathan Fillon (Buffy/Firefly)"

Ellen Muth - solid considering some of the shaky material. Nathan Fillion - tear-inducingly good.

"Worst Thing- 1st Buffy Ending, 2nd Firefly being Cancelled"

Buffy ending was a blessing - I can just imagine a further nosedive in quality with seaosn 8. Firefly being cancelled = the death of good TV.

"Best Thing- 1st Return of Dr Who, 5th Firefly"

Firefly should win Best Thing in all the Best Thing polls. Ever.

Hmm. I think that post may just qualify me for fanboy status...
